Century Entrepreneurship Development Agency � CEDA International is a not-for-profit organization specializing in leadership, mentoring and entrepreneurship development. The organization�s vision is to create a new generation of women leaders who are economically independent and socially responsible. The organization was started in 2007 out of the great need to bridge the leadership and employment gaps among youth and women in Uganda.
